STT Calculator formula
STT is calculated by multiplying the taxable transaction value by the rate applicable to the security, segment and transaction side.
How to interpret the result
Use the current official rate for the exact transaction type. A default example rate is not a universal rate.
Worked example
At 0.1%, a taxable value of 100,000 produces STT of 100. Confirm the current rate for your segment.
